Background The stream-valley aquifers sampled for this study underlie an area of about 9,600 square miles, in the sedimentary deposits of the Ohio and Allegheny River drainages and parts of a few large tributaries. The study area includes parts of Pennsylvania, West Virginia, Ohio, Kentucky, Indiana, and Illinois. About 2.8 million people live in the area overlying these aquifers and about 200 million gallons of water per day were withdrawn for public supply in these states from stream-valley aquifers in 2000 (Sargent and others, 2008; Kingsbury and others, 2021). Most of the area overlying the aquifer is undeveloped (60 percent). Agricultural land use makes up about 27 percent and urban land use makes up about 13 percent of the study area. Major cities in the study area include Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania; Cincinnati, Ohio; Louisville, Kentucky; and Evansville, Indiana. The stream-valley aquifers are within the Holocene-age sand and gravel deposited as alluvium along the valleys of major streams. Some of these sediments are reworked glacial deposits that were eroded and transported downstream, and they are associated with rivers such as the Allegheny and Ohio Rivers that have their headwaters in glaciated areas (Trapp and Horn, 1997). The stream-valley aquifers are associated with the sand and gravel deposits in the valleys of the stream or river that typically is hydraulically connected to the aquifers (Trapp and Horn, 1997). Groundwater in the stream-valley aquifers commonly is under water-table conditions, or unconfined conditions, but confined conditions are in places where clay or silt make up local confining units ( Lloyd and Lyke, 1995 ). Recharge to the aquifer is from infiltration of precipitation and drainage of surface water from the streams and rivers adjacent to these aquifers (Lloyd and Lyke, 1995; Trapp and Horn, 1997). The rivers throughout much of the study area are regulated by lock and dam systems that may affect the movement of surface water into the aquifer ( Maharjan
在俄亥俄河和阿勒格尼河流域的沉积沉积物以及几条大支流的部分地区,为这项研究取样的河谷含水层位于大约9600平方英里的区域之下。研究区域包括宾夕法尼亚州、西弗吉尼亚州、俄亥俄州、肯塔基州、印第安纳州和伊利诺伊州的部分地区。大约有280万人居住在这些含水层上的地区,2000年,这些州每天从河谷含水层抽取约2亿加仑的水供公共供应(萨金特等人,2008年;Kingsbury等人,2021)。含水层上方的大部分地区尚未开发(60%)。农业用地约占研究区域的27%,城市用地约占研究区域的13%。研究区域的主要城市包括宾夕法尼亚州的匹兹堡;俄亥俄州辛辛那提;路易斯维尔,肯塔基州;以及印第安纳州的埃文斯维尔。溪谷含水层是由全新世泥沙和砾石冲积物沿主要溪谷沉积而成。其中一些沉积物是被侵蚀并向下游输送的冰川沉积物,它们与阿勒格尼河和俄亥俄河等河流有关,这些河流的源头在冰川地区(Trapp和Horn, 1997)。溪谷含水层与通常与含水层水力连接的溪谷或河流中的砂砾沉积物有关(Trapp和Horn, 1997)。溪谷含水层中的地下水通常处于地下水位或无承压条件下,但承压条件是指粘土或淤泥构成局部承压单元的地方(Lloyd and Lyke, 1995)。含水层的补给来自于降水的渗透和邻近这些含水层的溪流和河流的地表水的排水(Lloyd和Lyke, 1995;Trapp and Horn, 1997)。大部分研究区域的河流由水闸和水坝系统控制,这可能会影响地表水进入含水层的运动(Maharjan)

Permafrost is frozen ground that underlies a quarter of the Northern Hemisphere; it defines the landscape and landscape processes of the Arctic. Permafrost helps retain surface water in ecosystems rather than allowing it to flow away. In so doing, it modifies water availability and thus helps dictate the distribution of plants and animals. Permafrost is also critical in maintaining the physical structure of soils, so that houses and roads can be built on them. In addition, permafrost maintains ecosystem integrity: ecosystems with stable permafrost may be less susceptible to disturbances such as wildfire and erosion. What happens when permafrost thaws? Continued atmospheric warming is expected to thaw permafrost over large regions this century. During thaw, the flow and interaction of surface water and groundwater change, making some systems wetter and others drier. Rates of erosion and landslides can increase, and land can subside, transforming ecosystems. Permafrost also contains enormous quantities of soil organic matter that has been frozen for tens of thousands of years. When permafrost thaws, soil organic matter is decomposed by microorganisms, reducing soil carbon storage, increasing greenhouse gas emissions, and affecting soil nutrients and water quality.
永久冻土是覆盖北半球四分之一的冻土;它定义了北极的景观和景观过程。永久冻土有助于将地表水保留在生态系统中,而不是让它流走。在这样做的过程中,它改变了水的可用性,从而有助于决定植物和动物的分布。永久冻土对于维持土壤的物理结构也至关重要,因此可以在其上建造房屋和道路。此外,永久冻土保持了生态系统的完整性:具有稳定永久冻土的生态系统可能不太容易受到野火和侵蚀等干扰。当永久冻土融化时会发生什么?持续的大气变暖预计将在本世纪融化大部分地区的永久冻土。在解冻期间,地表水和地下水的流动和相互作用发生了变化,使一些系统变得更湿润,而另一些系统变得更干燥。侵蚀和山体滑坡的速度可能会增加,土地可能会下沉,从而改变生态系统。永久冻土层还含有大量的土壤有机质,这些有机质已经冻结了数万年。当永久冻土融化时,土壤有机质被微生物分解,减少土壤碳储量,增加温室气体排放,并影响土壤养分和水质。

Sea-level rise vulnerability of mangrove forests on the Micronesian Island of Pohnpei 波纳佩密克罗尼西亚岛上红树林的海平面上升脆弱性

The mangrove forests across the Federated States of Micronesia provide critical resources and contribute to climate resilience. Locally, mangrove forests provide habitat for fish and wildlife, timber, and other cultural resources. Mangrove forests also protect Micronesian communities from tropical cyclones and tsunamis, providing a buffer against powerful waves and winds. Mangrove forests in Micronesia can store 700–1,800 metric tons of carbon per hectare (Donato and others, 2011), contributing to the estimated 5–10 billion metric tons of carbon stored by mangroves around the world (Alongi, 2018). This carbon storage is essential for global climate resilience. Mangrove forests and the benefits these ecosystems provide are threatened by accelerating sea-level rise and human activities. Healthy mangrove forests are resilient systems and have kept pace with some amounts of sea-level rise, but rapid sea-level rise could outpace the mangroves’ ability to adapt. Degraded mangroves are at greater risk where natural processes have been altered. Overharvest and clearing of timber, infrastructure development, and altered hydrology are just a few of the human activities that can damage mangrove forests.
密克罗尼西亚联邦各地的红树林提供了重要的资源,有助于增强气候适应能力。在当地,红树林为鱼类和野生动物、木材和其他文化资源提供了栖息地。红树林还保护密克罗尼西亚社区免受热带气旋和海啸的影响,为抵御强风和巨浪提供缓冲。密克罗尼西亚的红树林每公顷可储存700 - 1800吨碳(Donato等人,2011年),为世界各地红树林储存的约50 - 10亿吨碳做出了贡献(Alongi, 2018年)。这种碳储存对全球气候适应能力至关重要。红树林及其生态系统所带来的益处正受到海平面加速上升和人类活动的威胁。健康的红树林是一个有弹性的系统,在一定程度上跟上了海平面上升的步伐,但海平面的快速上升可能超过红树林的适应能力。在自然过程发生改变的地方,退化的红树林面临更大的风险。过度采伐和砍伐木材、基础设施建设和水文变化只是破坏红树林的人类活动中的一小部分。

The Transformation of dryland rivers: The future of introduced tamarisk in the U.S. 旱地河流的转变:美国引种红柳的未来

Tamarix spp. (tamarisk or saltcedar), a shrub-like tree, was intentionally introduced to the U.S. from Asia in the mid-1800s. Tamarisk thrives in today’s human-altered streamside (riparian) habitats and can be found along wetlands, rivers, lakes, and streams across the western U.S. In 2001, a biological control agent, Diorhabda spp. (tamarisk leaf beetle), was released in six states, and has since spread throughout the southwestern U.S. and northern Mexico. Beetle defoliation of tamarisk has altered tamarisk’s water use and effectiveness as erosion control, as well as dynamics of native and nonnative plant and wildlife species. The full effects of the tamarisk leaf beetle on ecosystem function remain unknown. The U.S. Geological Survey collaborates with Tribal, State, Federal agencies, and other institutions to provide current, fact-based information on the effects of tamarisk and the tamarisk leaf beetle on managed resources, and provides sound science for conservation and restoration of riparian habitats in the southwestern U.S. Tamarisk and Riparian Systems Streamside (riparian) habitat occupies less than 10 percent of the Southwestern landscape. Yet, it is the most critical ecosystem in drylands, providing habitat for more than 90 percent of wildlife species and provides other ecological functions. Thus, riparian habitats receive considerable attention, resources, and management action. The success of nonnative Tamarix spp. (tamarisk or saltcedar) in riparian habitats across the Southwest has led to large changes in biological and geomorphological processes. Several factors have contributed to the success of tamarisk in the western U.S. Tamarisk produce seeds that are dispersed by wind and water throughout the spring and summer. Tamarisk has small, needle-like, salt-exuding leaves that allow them to tolerate high-levels of salinity, drought, and heat. Tamarisk may be favored in areas along river courses (1) that have altered flood regimes, (2) that are saltier due to the effects of dams and water diversions, (3) with less available water because streams are undergoing pressures from drought and increased temperatures, and (4) with declining groundwater levels owing to over-extraction and limited recharge. The spread of tamarisk in the west coincided with a decline in the ecological function of many riparian habitats in the early 20th century. Rivers and streams were dammed and (or) water was diverted for irrigation purposes separate from but concurrent with the introduction of tamarisk to the U.S. Increasing concern over the spread of tamarisk led to the release of a biological control agent, Diorhabda carinulata (northern tamarisk leaf beetle), starting in 2001. The beetles were released in six states— California, Colorado, Nevada, Texas, Utah, and Wyoming—by the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service.

红柳是一种灌木状的树木,在19世纪中期被有意地从亚洲引入美国。红柳在今天人类改变的河滨(河岸)栖息地中茁壮成长,在美国西部的湿地、河流、湖泊和溪流中都能找到。2001年,一种生物防治剂——红柳叶甲虫(Diorhabda spp.,红柳叶甲虫)在六个州被释放,此后蔓延到美国西南部和墨西哥北部。柽柳的甲虫脱叶改变了柽柳的水分利用和控制侵蚀的有效性,以及本地和非本地植物和野生动物物种的动态。柽柳叶甲虫对生态系统功能的全面影响尚不清楚。美国地质调查局与部落、州、联邦机构和其他机构合作,就柽柳和柽柳叶甲虫对管理资源的影响提供最新的、基于事实的信息,并为保护和恢复美国西南部的河岸栖息地提供可靠的科学依据。柽柳和河岸系统河流(河岸)栖息地占西南地区景观的不到10%。然而,它是旱地最关键的生态系统,为90%以上的野生动物物种提供栖息地,并提供其他生态功能。因此,河岸栖息地得到了相当多的关注、资源和管理行动。非本地柽柳(柽柳或盐杉树)在美国西南部河岸栖息地的成功种植导致了生物和地貌过程的巨大变化。有几个因素促成了美国西部柽柳的成功。柽柳的种子在整个春季和夏季通过风和水传播。红柳有针状的小叶子,能分泌盐分,这使它们能够忍受高盐度、干旱和高温。柽柳可能在以下地区受到青睐:(1)改变了洪水状况,(2)由于水坝和引水的影响而变得更咸,(3)由于干旱和温度升高而溪流的可用水较少,以及(4)由于过度开采和补给有限而地下水水位下降。20世纪初,红柳在西部的传播与许多河岸栖息地的生态功能下降相吻合。在将红柳引入美国的同时,在河流和溪流中筑起了水坝,并将水改道用于灌溉。人们对红柳传播的日益关注导致了一种生物防治剂——北红柳叶甲虫(Diorhabda carinulata)的释放,从2001年开始。美国农业部动植物卫生检疫局在加州、科罗拉多州、内华达州、德克萨斯州、犹他州和怀俄明州六个州释放了这些甲虫。自2001年以来,引入了更多的红柳叶甲虫物种,并已蔓延到邻近的州和墨西哥北部。红柳植物的照片。美国地质调查局帕梅拉·纳格勒拍摄。美国内政部美国地质调查概况2020-3061 2021年4月监测甲虫落叶和柽柳响应一些生态系统功能,如野生动物栖息地和水利用,受到柽柳生物防治的影响。美国地质勘探局的科学家和合作者使用遥感、延时数码摄影和地面测量技术来监测甲虫的位置、它们的传播速度以及它们对红柳的影响。虽然甲虫通常会导致几乎100%的落叶,但红柳很少被一次事件杀死。几次落叶事件可以在一年内发生,但大量的树枝枯死(部分,但不是全部,冠层死亡)或红柳死亡通常是在多年重复落叶事件之后发生的。枯死和死亡反应的差异可能与植物遗传、土壤微生物或环境条件有关,如空气温度、水流模式、地下水深度、土壤盐度和溪流中的水盐度。柽柳作为野生动物栖息地河岸栖息地支持许多野生动物物种,并作为筑巢和繁殖鸟类的迁徙路线。鸟类沿着河流和溪流的迁徙进化,与当地树木提供的食物和栖息地相一致。红柳为各种各样的鸟类、爬行动物和小型哺乳动物提供了栖息地,尽管栖息地的质量可能因不同的野生动物种类和红柳的数量而有所不同。红柳可以形成大型的、单一物种的树木群,称为林分,或者它可以生长在混合林分中,与当地的河岸树木和灌木,如白杨和柳树一起生长。单种红柳和混交林具有不同的生态系统功能。 红柳是一种灌木状的树木,在19世纪中期被有意地从亚洲引入美国。红柳在今天人类改变的河滨(河岸)栖息地中茁壮成长,在美国西部的湿地、河流、湖泊和溪流中都能找到。2001年,一种生物防治剂——红柳叶甲虫(Diorhabda spp.,红柳叶甲虫)在六个州被释放,此后蔓延到美国西南部和墨西哥北部。柽柳的甲虫脱叶改变了柽柳的水分利用和控制侵蚀的有效性,以及本地和非本地植物和野生动物物种的动态。柽柳叶甲虫对生态系统功能的全面影响尚不清楚。美国地质调查局与部落、州、联邦机构和其他机构合作,就柽柳和柽柳叶甲虫对管理资源的影响提供最新的、基于事实的信息,并为保护和恢复美国西南部的河岸栖息地提供可靠的科学依据。柽柳和河岸系统河流(河岸)栖息地占西南地区景观的不到10%。然而,它是旱地最关键的生态系统,为90%以上的野生动物物种提供栖息地,并提供其他生态功能。因此,河岸栖息地得到了相当多的关注、资源和管理行动。非本地柽柳(柽柳或盐杉树)在美国西南部河岸栖息地的成功种植导致了生物和地貌过程的巨大变化。有几个因素促成了美国西部柽柳的成功。柽柳的种子在整个春季和夏季通过风和水传播。红柳有针状的小叶子,能分泌盐分,这使它们能够忍受高盐度、干旱和高温。柽柳可能在以下地区受到青睐:(1)改变了洪水状况,(2)由于水坝和引水的影响而变得更咸,(3)由于干旱和温度升高而溪流的可用水较少,以及(4)由于过度开采和补给有限而地下水水位下降。20世纪初,红柳在西部的传播与许多河岸栖息地的生态功能下降相吻合。在将红柳引入美国的同时,在河流和溪流中筑起了水坝,并将水改道用于灌溉。人们对红柳传播的日益关注导致了一种生物防治剂——北红柳叶甲虫(Diorhabda carinulata)的释放,从2001年开始。美国农业部动植物卫生检疫局在加州、科罗拉多州、内华达州、德克萨斯州、犹他州和怀俄明州六个州释放了这些甲虫。自2001年以来,引入了更多的红柳叶甲虫物种,并已蔓延到邻近的州和墨西哥北部。红柳植物的照片。美国地质调查局帕梅拉·纳格勒拍摄。美国内政部美国地质调查概况2020-3061 2021年4月监测甲虫落叶和柽柳响应一些生态系统功能,如野生动物栖息地和水利用,受到柽柳生物防治的影响。美国地质勘探局的科学家和合作者使用遥感、延时数码摄影和地面测量技术来监测甲虫的位置、它们的传播速度以及它们对红柳的影响。虽然甲虫通常会导致几乎100%的落叶,但红柳很少被一次事件杀死。几次落叶事件可以在一年内发生,但大量的树枝枯死(部分,但不是全部,冠层死亡)或红柳死亡通常是在多年重复落叶事件之后发生的。枯死和死亡反应的差异可能与植物遗传、土壤微生物或环境条件有关,如空气温度、水流模式、地下水深度、土壤盐度和溪流中的水盐度。柽柳作为野生动物栖息地河岸栖息地支持许多野生动物物种,并作为筑巢和繁殖鸟类的迁徙路线。鸟类沿着河流和溪流的迁徙进化,与当地树木提供的食物和栖息地相一致。红柳为各种各样的鸟类、爬行动物和小型哺乳动物提供了栖息地,尽管栖息地的质量可能因不同的野生动物种类和红柳的数量而有所不同。红柳可以形成大型的、单一物种的树木群,称为林分,或者它可以生长在混合林分中,与当地的河岸树木和灌木,如白杨和柳树一起生长。单种红柳和混交林具有不同的生态系统功能。 单种红柳林的昆虫和蜘蛛等节肢动物较少,而这些节肢动物是许多鸟类、爬行动物和小型哺乳动物的重要猎物。红柳树冠上的温度可能比本地树木的温度要高,这对生活在那里的一些鸟类和其他动物来说是生与死的区别。照片显示红柳叶甲虫对红柳的生物防治。丹·比恩摄影。西南柳捕蝇器的照片。摄影:Osvel Hinojosa-Huerta,康奈尔鸟类学实验室。叶甲虫极大地增加了温度,降低了湿度,增加了树冠上的太阳辐射,这可能导致巢的放弃和失败。然而,许多鸟类成功地在红柳上筑巢,小型哺乳动物和爬行动物将红柳作为栖息地的比例与本地树木大致相同。混合林分比

Tamarisk thrives in today’s human-altered streamside (riparian) habitats and can be found along wetlands, rivers, lakes, and streams across the western U.S. In 2001, a biological control agent, Diorhabda spp. (tamarisk leaf beetle), was released in six states, and has since spread throughout the southwestern U.S. and northern Mexico. Beetle defoliation of tamarisk has altered tamarisk’s water use and effectiveness as erosion control, as well as dynamics of native and nonnative plant and wildlife species. The full effects of the tamarisk leaf beetle on ecosystem function remain unknown. The U.S. Geological Survey collaborates with Tribal, State, Federal agencies, and other institutions to provide current, fact-based information on the effects of tamarisk and the tamarisk leaf beetle on managed resources, and provides sound science for conservation and restoration of riparian habitats in the southwestern U.S. Tamarisk and Riparian Systems Streamside (riparian) habitat occupies less than 10 percent of the Southwestern landscape. Yet, it is the most critical ecosystem in drylands, providing habitat for more than 90 percent of wildlife species and provides other ecological functions. Thus, riparian habitats receive considerable attention, resources, and management action. The success of nonnative Tamarix spp. (tamarisk or saltcedar) in riparian habitats across the Southwest has led to large changes in biological and geomorphological processes. Several factors have contributed to the success of tamarisk in the western U.S. Tamarisk produce seeds that are dispersed by wind and water throughout the spring and summer. Tamarisk has small, needle-like, salt-exuding leaves that allow them to tolerate high-levels of salinity, drought, and heat. Tamarisk may be favored in areas along river courses (1) that have altered flood regimes, (2) that are saltier due to the effects of dams and water diversions, (3) with less available water because streams are undergoing pressures from drought and increased temperatures, and (4) with declining groundwater levels owing to over-extraction and limited recharge. The spread of tamarisk in the west coincided with a decline in the ecological function of many riparian habitats in the early 20th century. Rivers and streams were dammed and (or) water was diverted for irrigation purposes separate from but concurrent with the introduction of tamarisk to the U.S. Increasing concern over the spread of tamarisk led to the release of a biological control agent, Diorhabda carinulata (northern tamarisk leaf beetle), starting in 2001. The beetles were released in six states— California, Colorado, Nevada, Texas, Utah, and Wyoming—by the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service.

The Everglades is a large (about 47,000 square kilometers), unique subtropical wetland ecosystem in central and south Florida. This ecosystem provides habitat for many endemic and endangered species, offers protection against flooding, and supplies south Florida with a substantial amount of its water supply. In 2000, the U.S. Congress passed the Water Resources Development Act of 2000 (Public Law 106–541), which authorized the Comprehensive Everglades Restoration Plan (CERP). The CERP seeks to improve the timing, distribution, and quality of water flow through The Everglades to facilitate the recovery of the unique habitats historically present in the system. Restoration of The Everglades is one of the largest and most expensive ecological restoration efforts in the world, and its implementation requires extensive cooperation among stakeholders to ensure that restoration efforts are successful (LoSchiavo and others, 2013).
大沼泽地是佛罗里达州中部和南部的一个大型(约47,000平方公里),独特的亚热带湿地生态系统。这个生态系统为许多地方性和濒危物种提供了栖息地,提供了防止洪水的保护,并为南佛罗里达提供了大量的水供应。2000年,美国国会通过了《2000年水资源开发法案》(公法106-541),授权了《沼泽地综合恢复计划》(CERP)。CERP旨在改善沼泽地水流的时间、分布和质量,以促进该系统中历史上独特栖息地的恢复。大沼泽地的恢复是世界上规模最大、最昂贵的生态恢复工作之一,它的实施需要利益相关者之间的广泛合作,以确保恢复工作的成功(LoSchiavo等人,2013)。

Printed on recycled paper The Chesapeake Bay ecosystem is a national treasure that provides almost $100 billion annually of goods and services. The Chesapeake Bay Program (CBP), is one of the largest federal-state restoration partnerships in the United States and is underpinned by rigorous science. The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) has a pivotal role as a science provider for assessing ecosystem condition and response in the Chesapeake watershed. Despite significant CBP accomplishments, the pressures of climate change and competing demands on land use and change require an acceleration of progress towards the 10 goals in the Chesapeake Bay Watershed Agreement. USGS Chesapeake studies are increasing efforts to provide integrated science and are engaging stakeholders to inform the multi-faceted restoration and conservation decisions to improve habitat for fish and waterfowl, and socio-economic benefits to the 18 million people living in the watershed.
切萨皮克湾生态系统是国家宝藏,每年提供近1000亿美元的商品和服务。切萨皮克湾项目(CBP)是美国最大的联邦-州修复合作项目之一,并以严谨的科学为基础。美国地质调查局(USGS)作为评估切萨皮克流域生态系统状况和响应的科学提供者,发挥着关键作用。尽管CBP取得了重大成就,但气候变化的压力以及对土地使用和变化的竞争需求要求加快实现《切萨皮克湾流域协议》的10个目标。美国地质调查局的切萨皮克研究正在加大努力,提供综合科学,并与利益相关者合作,为多方面的恢复和保护决策提供信息,以改善鱼类和水禽的栖息地,并为生活在流域的1800万人口带来社会经济效益。
